00:00 In a legal saga that continues to captivate the nation, former President Donald Trump's
00:08 criminal trial, stemming from hush money paid to an adult star before the 2016 US election,
00:15 faces yet another twist.
00:17 The trial, initially scheduled to commence on March 25, has been met with a 30-day delay,
00:24 granting Trump's defense team more time due to the late disclosure of evidence.
00:29 This one-merchant decision marks a temporary victory for Trump, allowing him to further
00:35 delay the proceedings amidst the preparation for a potential challenge amidst President
00:40 Joe Biden in the upcoming November election.
00:43 At the heart of the matter lies allegations of falsifying business records to conceal
00:49 a payment made by Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen to adult film star and actress Stormy
00:55 Daniels.
00:56 Trump maintains his innocence, denying any involvement in the alleged sexual encounter
01:02 with Daniels and arguing that the payment was made to protect his family's reputation,
01:08 not his electoral prospects.
01:11 The delay in the trial follows the late disclosure of over 100,000 pages of documents by the
01:17 US Attorney's Office, prompting Trump's defense team to request more time for review.
01:22 Meanwhile, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office contends that much of the disclosed
01:28 material is irrelevant to the case, accusing Trump's team of seeking to delay proceedings.
01:35 Despite facing multiple legal challenges, Trump's bid for the presidency remains unscathed,
01:40 with his recent clinching of the Republican nomination underscoring his resilience.
01:46 As the legal battle unfolds, the nation watches with bated breath, awaiting the next chapter
01:52 in this unprecedented courtroom drama in the United States.
